How to play Emperor's Gold (members only)

Wins are paid when matching symbols land on an active payline, usually left to right starting from the leftmost reel. Your total stake is spread across the lines, and each line win is the line bet multiplied by the symbol's paytable value.

Emperor's Gold is played on a 5×3 grid with 10 paylines.

Set your stake. Choose your total bet per spin between $0.10 and $500. Wins are paid as multiples of this stake.
Check the paytable. Open the game's info screen to see what each symbol pays and the exact rules for this version.
Spin. Each spin's result is decided by a certified random number generator, independent of previous spins.
Trigger the bonus. Land the required scatter symbols to start the free spins feature.

How winnings work (members only)

What 98% RTP costs per $100 wagered

What 98% RTP means

Expected return = stake × 98%
Over $100 of total bets, the long-run average loss is $2.00

RTP is a long-run average across millions of spins. Any single session can finish far above or below it, especially on a volatile game.

Features explained (members only)

3 features explained: sticky wilds, expanding wilds, free spins

Sticky wilds

Sticky wilds stay locked in place for several spins or for the rest of a feature, giving every following spin a better chance of connecting wins.

Expanding wilds

When an expanding wild lands, it grows to cover its whole reel, turning one symbol into a full column of wilds.

Free spins

A bonus round of spins played at no cost to your balance, usually triggered by landing three or more scatter symbols. Wins during the round are added to your balance, and many games let you retrigger extra spins.

Strategy tips (members only)

Bonus wagering: at 98% RTP, clearing $1,000 of wagering costs about $20.00 on average. Check the bonus terms, as some casinos exclude specific games. Run your numbers in the wagering calculator.

1 more tip

Set limits before you spin. Decide your loss limit and session time in advance and stop when you reach either. No pattern or betting system changes the outcome of a spin.
